Library for using the Saleae Logic 2 Automation API
Decision gist · record as of 2026-08-14
Yes, if you own Saleae Logic 2 hardware and need to automate signal capture and analysis in Python. The package is actively maintained, has low install friction, and no known vulnerabilities. Verify the license before use in proprietary contexts. Be aware that protobuf/gRPC compatibility has been a historical issue; test with your specific dependency versions before deploying to production.AI-flagged interpretation of the facts on this page — verify before relying
Before you install
- Requires Python >=3.7 and a running Saleae Logic 2 application with Automation API enabled; pywin32 dependency is Windows-specific.
- Low friction installation with a pure-Python wheel.
- Maintenance is active with recent releases; however, the changelog shows a history of protobuf/gRPC compatibility issues that have been addressed but may resurface if dependency versions diverge.

What it is and what it does
logic2-automation is a gRPC-based Python client for the Saleae Logic 2 Automation API, allowing you to control Logic 2 hardware analyzers programmatically. It wraps the Automation API's protocol buffer definitions and exposes them as a Python interface, letting you capture digital signals, configure analyzers, and retrieve results without manual interaction with the Logic 2 GUI.
The package depends on grpcio, protobuf, and pywin32, and has experienced a complex history of protobuf/gRPC version compatibility issues that the maintainers have worked to stabilize. It is actively maintained and supports current Python versions (3.7+), making it suitable for automation workflows that integrate hardware analysis into larger test or measurement systems.
Use it for
- Automate digital signal capture and analysis in continuous integration or test pipelines using Saleae Logic 2 hardware.
- Build custom measurement or debugging tools that programmatically control Logic 2 analyzers without GUI interaction.
- Integrate protocol decoding and signal analysis into data acquisition or embedded systems validation workflows.
- Script batch analysis of multiple captured signals or configure analyzer settings dynamically based on test parameters.
